Welcome to Lineage & Heritage Studio. These Terms & Conditions govern your use of our website and services. By accessing our website or placing an order, you agree to the terms outlined below.

1. GENERAL INFORMATION

This website is owned and operated by Lineage & Heritage Studio, offering personalized digital heritage reports, coats of arms, and family-history research, delivered electronically. References to “we,” “our,” or “us” mean Lineage & Heritage Studio. By using this website or buying our products/services, you confirm your agreement to these legally binding terms. If you disagree with any part, please do not use our services.

2. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

All website content—including artwork (crests, family history graphics), written family histories, logos, product descriptions, and layouts—is the exclusive property of Lineage & Heritage Studio and is protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

You are strictly prohibited from:

  • Reproducing, distributing, publicly displaying, or creating derivative works without written permission.
  • Claiming authorship or originality of our research or artwork.
  • Using our designs commercially, including on third-party print-on-demand services.

Violation constitutes infringement and may result in civil and criminal penalties.

3. ORDERS, PAYMENTS & PRICING

  • All orders are subject to product availability and price confirmation.
  • Prices may change without notice, though confirmed orders are locked in.
  • Payment via our secure partner providers (e.g. Shopify/Stripe/PayPal).
  • We do not store your payment details; processors handle that.

4. CORRECTIONS & DIGITAL PRODUCTS

  • Reports are personalized digital products generated for your surname and delivered instantly by email.
  • If your report contains an error, didn’t arrive, or isn’t what you expected, contact us and we’ll correct it and resend it until it’s right, at no charge.
  • You’re covered by our Corrections Guarantee; because reports are personalized digital products, we don’t issue monetary refunds — see our Refund Policy for full details.
  • There is nothing to return; your report remains yours to keep.

5. DIGITAL DELIVERY

  • All orders are delivered electronically to the email address provided at checkout, typically within minutes.
  • It is your responsibility to provide a correct, working email address; we are not responsible for reports sent to an address entered incorrectly.
  • If your report does not arrive, please check your spam or promotions folder, then contact us and we’ll resend it at no charge.

6. DISCLAIMER OF HERALDIC ACCURACY

  • We perform thorough research using public sources and archives; however, heraldic traditions vary by region and era.
  • Our coats of arms and family histories are artistic interpretations, not official genealogical documentation.
  • You acknowledge that use of any heraldic content from our service is at your own discretion.

7. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

To the fullest legal extent:

  • We shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, punitive, or consequential losses (e.g., loss of business, profit, or goodwill).
  • Our maximum liability is capped at the purchase price of the relevant order.
  • We are not responsible for personal injury, property damage, or misinterpretation of purchased heraldic content.

9. RIGHT TO REFUSE SERVICE

We reserve the right to refuse or cancel orders at our discretion, including:

  • For suspected fraud.

10. PAYMENT DISPUTES

  • Any payment disputes or chargebacks must be resolved directly with us first.
